HOW BUHARI, TINUBU SAVED OSHIOMHOLE FROM DOWNFALL
Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, APC. |
Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, no doubt has become a political leader with nine lives, courtesy of the salvation offered him by President Muhammadu Buhari and the former Lagos state Governorand leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
The National Chairman of the ruling party has been embattled of late, following the accusation of high-handedness levelled against him by some members of the party, for which they had called for his head.
According to Saturday Vanguard’s reports, in spite of the string of electoral losses by the party in the last general elections, both the president and the former Lagos state Governor believe in the capacity of Comrade Oshiomhole to stir the party out of troubled waters.
The development, the report added, has now forced some hitherto complacent governors of the party to now align with the national chairman, a move that has thwarted efforts by some stakeholders in the states to rise against the Chairman.
A source was quoted as saying, “So long as the two men who brought him to power are still backing him, Oshiomhole is going nowhere, mark my words on that. You can see that Shuaibu is on his own and that is why they didn’t invite him to yesterday’s National Working Committee, NWC meeting. “
It will be recalled that a former governor of Edo State, Chief John Odigie Oyegun stirred the hornets’ nest by derogating Oshiomhole as an incompetent leader.
